"Enrique, his brother Alfredo and the rest of the team were very professional and did a great job. Would highly recommend them for an insulation project."
"This September I had a home energy audit through Fulkrum Insulation. They said we needed some Ductwork changes and more insulation in the attic. Since having those solutions installed, my electric bill has been dramatically lower than ever before."
"Top notch customer service. They explained to me line by line all the rebates I can get through the utility company. The biggest being the green energy tax credit that was about to expire by the end of the year if I were to install a solar attic fan through them, which I had no idea. The rebates and credits really help me make the decision to get it done now. So glad we did. Technicians were on time, in and out clean and efficient. The solar attic fan they installed made a huge difference in our attic. They were able to retrofit it over our existing vent hole which was very nice because we didn't have to cut a new hole in our roof. All and all just wonderful experience. The new insulation made our home much more comfortable now."
"Mr. Harsin inspected my attic and fully explained options and trade offs to improve my insulation. His crew came next day, were knowledgeable, completed the work and cleaned up afterwards."
"I can't thank these guys enough! They gave us a great deal and went above and beyond what we had hired them to do. They are going to come back out and take care of a few other things that they can do besides insulation. I can't recommend them enough. They are very punctual, professional, and very friendly. Even our dogs approve of them! Even before they were finished, I already noticed a VERY big difference in the temperature in the house. Instead of the AC running all day and it being 6-10 warmer than I prefer, it stays at the temperature I want it. The AC runs 1/4 of the time instead of running all day."

"The owner came out and did an estimate of the job needing to be done. Was very polite, professional and honest. I had interviewed 4 other insulation companies and they all said something different."
Plaster is denser, harder, and more porous than drywall, so it absorbs moisture differently. This means you’ll often need more prep work, such as thorough sanding, patching, and priming with a high-quality bonding primer. Additionally, you may need more coats of paint to achieve even coverage. While the process takes more time, it helps ensure a durable and professional-looking result.
Whether a drywall anchor can be reused depends on its material, type, and the method of removal. Plastic anchors, including expansion and self-drilling types, are generally designed for single use as they tend to break or deform upon removal. Metal anchors, such as toggle bolts, are more durable and may be reusable if they are not damaged during extraction. However, with toggle bolts, the toggle piece can fall into the wall cavity when the bolt is removed, making it difficult to retrieve. If an anchor is damaged during removal, for instance by having its head cut off, it cannot be reused regardless of the material.
A jigsaw is commonly used to cut holes in drywall. It offers versatility and precision, making it suitable for creating circular or irregular openings. When equipped with the right blade, a jigsaw can swiftly and cleanly cut through drywall, making it a good choice for DIY projects.
Yes, applying a texture can hide minor imperfections and irregularities in drywall, but it will not cover significant damage like nail marks or screw holes. The best texture depends on the size of the flaws. For minor imperfections, popular choices like orange peel, sand, or popcorn texture are effective. For larger imperfections, you may need a more prominent style, such as a knockdown or trowel finish, to conceal them effectively.
You can technically just paint over hairline cracks in plaster since these cracks are often harmless, but this will mostly be a waste of paint. Paint will only hide the hairline crack for a few months before it shows up again. The best solution is to repair the crack with flexible filler or joint compound before repainting.
